In a word it’s safer.
Many moons ago when Laura our daughter was a baby as well as dealing with her I also had a rather large Rottweiler to contend with.
Don’t worry the baby was never in any danger from the dog but when out for a walk handling a pram and a dog was a real problem and I have to say unsafe. The dog would get tangled in the stroller and threaten to tip it over.
The solution was a Front Baby Carrier that helped keep Laura close to my body leaving both hands free to deal with my dog. Now it was easy to deal with the dog because my baby was nice and safe close to my body where I could keep an eye on her.
When Laura got to big for the front carrier I migrated to a back pack carrier and again had two hands free to control my dog or anything else that cropped up for that matter.
I believe a baby / child carrier isn’t a would like purchase it’s an essential piece of safety equipment that leaves you free to concentrate on keeping your baby safe.
There are so many different types / stlyes of baby carrier I’m sure you’ll easily find one that’s not only safe but looks good to boot
